About me and my therapy practice
A warm welcome to my page. I appreciate talking to someone can feel like a big step. It is rare to have a place where we can be truly honest. My aim is to offer a place where you feel comfortable enough to share and explore what it means to be you in the world.
I am an empathic and compassionate counsellor. I offer an authentic, safe relationship where you can grow and work through problems at your own pace.
Practice description
Having someone we feel able to share our feelings with can help us to find an accepting relationship with ourselves. One where we have more freedom to be our true selves, without needing a facade.
As a registered member of the BACP I am committed to their ethical framework. I have a Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling from Haulm, who specialise in the Person-Centred approach, and also have the Certificate of Proficiency from the BACP.
I have worked as a group facilitator in the public sector for over 20-years, working with people who’ve experienced challenges and trauma in their lives. I am trauma aware in my practice, where my aim is to develop a relationship which brings safety and offers freedom to listen to your own voice and find your own way. I also worked as a Wellbeing Mentor at Varndean College for over 10 years, working one-to-one with students. I currently volunteer at As You Are, who offer low-cost counselling in Sussex.
I am committed to working inclusively, I want you to feel able to share your own experience of difference and to feel heard and empowered.

About me and my therapy practice
A warm welcome to my page. I appreciate talking to someone can feel like a big step. My aim is for you to feel able to share what it means to be you in the world. To be comfortable enough to be able to bring all parts of yourself.
Life can be complicated and heavy and it can be rare to have a place where we can be truly honest. Rather than offering advice or guidance I want to be with you as you explore your experience in the world. I bring curiosity and acceptance with the aim of getting closer to understanding all of you. The Person Centred approach recognises we are all nuanced and understandable. Having someone we feel able to share our feelings with can help us to find an accepting relationship with ourselves. One where we have more freedom to be our true selves, without needing a facade.
My in my own life counselling has helped me through difficult times. It has been a place where I felt able to truly be myself and give myself compassion.
I am committed to working inclusively, I want you to feel able to share your own experience of difference and to feel heard and empowered.
Practice description
Person-centred therapy is based on a relationship of equals, built on respect and understanding. I aim to provide a space without judgement or being told what to think. I believe you are the expert in your own life and experience.Exploring our struggles with curiosity and acceptance can bring great insight and understanding. Time and time again I see clients gaining trust and confidence in themselves, and through this finding the change they need
